Dedication

We dedicate this space to the spiritual, psychological and creative growth of all who come here.

Within the heart of the Salisbury Centre lies a vision of Oneness:
the integration of the essence of spiritual traditions with
psychological growth. The Sufi invocation of Hazrat Inayat Khan
opened meditations held by the original residents, expressing their
commitment to the fundamental principle on which the Centre was
based, the deep interconnectedness of all life. The Centre was
dedicated to the integration of Body, Mind(Psyche) and Spirit:
Spirit through meditation and study of texts, Mind through Dr
Winifred Rushforth 's work with dreams and expressing Psyche through
arts and crafts, and physical wellbeing through disciplines like Tai
Chi and Yoga and activities such as gardening. These three streams
continue to find expression today, different aspects of the
Body/Mind/Spirit triune, the Salisbury Centre logo.

Toward the One
The Perfection of
Love, Harmony & Beauty,
The Only Being,

Though the current trustees of the Salisbury Centre fully agree with the meaning and sentiments of the above, we have found that it may give the impression that the Salisbury Centre is a Sufi Centre. We
want to make it clear that the Centre is open in its approach and is
not focussed on any specific religion or practice.

Our Mission Statement is:

The Salisbury Centre exists to create a dynamic spiritual centre which
provides for the City of Edinburgh by offering courses and experiences that actively support and encourage the development of responsibility
and service to the community. Our programmes are varied and accessible
in order to offer people the opportunity to find their own spiritual
path.

Therefore we have adopted this dedication:

We dedicate this space to the spiritual, psychological and creative growth of all who come here.

However, we do not require anyone to actively use a dedication in their work in the Centre.
